Produktbeschreibung

In Mrs. Oliphant's Heart and Cross, readers are immersed in a tale that delves deeply into themes of love, loss, and redemption. The book is written in a poignant and reflective style, with vivid descriptions that evoke a sense of timelessness. Set in the Victorian era, the novel captures the societal norms and values of the time, while also exploring the complexities of human emotions and relationships. The storyline is intricately woven, with unexpected twists and turns that keep readers captivated until the very end. Mrs. Oliphant, a prolific and respected author of the 19th century, drew inspiration for her work from her own personal experiences and observations of society. Her deep understanding of human nature and her keen insight into the human condition shine through in Heart and Cross, making it a powerful and moving literary work. I highly recommend Heart and Cross to readers who enjoy thought-provoking and emotionally resonant novels. Mrs. Oliphant's masterful storytelling and profound exploration of timeless themes make this book a must-read for fans of classic literature.

Autorenporträt

Margaret Oliphant Wilson Oliphant was a Scottish author and historical writer who usually wrote under the name Mrs. Oliphant. She was born Margaret Oliphant Wilson on April 4, 1828, and died on June 20, 1897. She writes "domestic realism, the historical novel, and tales of the supernatural" as her short stories. Margaret Oliphant was born in Wallyford, near Musselburgh, East Lothian. She was the only daughter and youngest child still living of Margaret Oliphant (c. 1789-17 September 1854) and Francis W. Wilson, a clerk. We lived in Lasswade, Glasgow, and Liverpool when she was a child. In Wallyford, a street called Oliphant Gardens is named after her. As a girl, she was always trying new things with writing. Passages in the Life of Mrs. Margaret Maitland, her first book, came out in 1849. This was about the mostly successful Scottish Free Church movement, which was something her folks agreed with. Next came Caleb Field in 1851, the same year she met publisher William Blackwood in Edinburgh and was asked to write for Blackwood's Magazine. She did so for the rest of her life and wrote over 100 articles, including one that criticized Arthur Dimmesdale in Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter."
